Report

In the past, once the Saint Physique appeared, the world would be subdued. Everywhere it passed, heroes would retreat, not daring to face it head-on.

Unfortunately, it had declined for too long. Nowadays, even the disciples of small sects would add the word 'Trash Physique' when talking about this physique.

As the years flowed and rose and fell, the Saint Physique faded away from the masses and could no longer display its supreme elegance. The cycle was unstoppable.

Ye Fan wanted to break the curse and change the current predicament. He urgently wanted to become stronger, especially after hearing the secret of Great Emperor Wu Shi. His emotions fluctuated greatly.

The divine city was really too big. After so many days, Ye Fan was only limited to a corner and didn't go deep into it.

Of course, this was mainly because he wanted to gamble on stones. It was impossible to look at the flowers on horseback. After choosing a stone square, he would have to stay for a long time.

Today, Li Heishui took Ye Fan a bit further. This ancient street was very wide, but there weren't many pedestrians. It was exceptionally quiet.

On both sides of the road were ancient trees. Their branches reached the sky and their bark was dry and cracked. Even a dozen people wouldn't be able to wrap their arms around them. They covered the sky and covered the sun, giving this place a sense of eeriness.

After walking forward for a while, Ye Fan found that something was wrong. There was a stone square on the side of the road. It was quite large and occupied a vast area. However, it was exceptionally desolate.

Weeds were overgrown and the old trees were growing crazily, almost submerging the building. It was obvious that no one had taken care of it for many years. It had almost become a wild land.

"I'm going to faint!"

Ye Fan was dumbfounded because he actually saw a rabbit. That's right, a wild rabbit jumped out of the weeds and rushed into the depths of the garden.

This was the divine city. Every inch of land was worth gold. How could such a huge palace be so desolate?

Unexpectedly, no one took care of it. It had become a strange place with ancient vines and wild trees. It was indeed a bit special. The most excessive thing was that wild rabbits had appeared.

Very soon, Ye Fan found two wild chickens. They flapped their wings and flew into the depths of the shrubs. He was quite speechless. This was too strange.

"What is this place? Why would someone in the divine city be willing to abandon such a precious place?!"

"This place … is the stone square of the Heavenly Jade Holy Land," Li Heishui said.

In front of him, there was a magnificent doorway on the side of the road. It was covered by ancient trees, and there was a mottled bronze plaque engraved with two ancient characters — Merak.

"It's that Holy Land!" Ye Fan was surprised. He walked closer and carefully sized it up. "No wonder."

He thought of Crazy 'Ole. Years ago, when this holy land was at its peak, it used the whole sect to attack the forbidden land of the Barren Antiquity, but it was almost destroyed.

"Don't the other Holy Lands have any thoughts?" Ye Fan asked.

In the distant past, there were more Holy Lands than there were now, but up until now, many of their inheritances had already been severed. The treasures they left behind were all divided up by the other Holy Lands. This was also one of the reasons why the Holy Lands were becoming more and more powerful.

"Back then, only three or four people from the Heavenly Jade Holy Land managed to escape. How could they suppress the other Holy Lands who were eyeing them covetously? Many of the treasures they left behind were divided, including the vast Source Mine outside the Absolute Beginning Forbidden Land."

"Why hasn't this place been divided?" Ye Fan didn't understand.

"Of course, there are reasons …" Li Heishui explained.

The Heavenly Jade Holy Land was located in the central region of the Eastern Barren Territory. The three or four people who escaped from the Heavenly Jade Holy Land died not long after.

The other Holy Lands wanted to divide the Heavenly Jade Holy Land equally, but later on, there would be cries coming from the Heavenly Jade Holy Land every full moon. A few Sacred Lords went to investigate at night, but they couldn't find anything.

Not long after, the biggest stone square in the Divine City also heard sorrowful cries when there was a full moon. The other Holy Lands sent experts to investigate, but they didn't even see a shadow. In the end, they didn't dare to touch this place.

In the following years, every thousand years, the sorrowful cries would appear in the middle of the night, and it really shocked all the Holy Lands.

Until now, no one dared to touch this place.

"Huh? The door is open." Ye Fan was surprised.

"So many years have passed, and only an old guard is left. He's the descendant of that loyal old servant, but he's about to die out. Now, this guard doesn't have any descendants."

"Can I go in and take a look?"

"You can go in, but the stones have long been transported away by the Great Sage's Lands. There's nothing good left."

"Can we gamble on stones here?" Ye Fan was a little surprised.

"The old servant who guards this place also needs to survive. He only guards this old house. As for the stones, if anyone wants to buy them, he will naturally sell them."

Back then, the Great Sage's Lands had transported many precious stones away first. The cries only appeared in the middle of the night. Although they didn't occupy this place, they couldn't return the stones.

The broken stone steps and the collapsed palace were all covered by grass and trees. An old man with blurred eyes and a hunched back sat on a piece of green stone.

He was old, and he didn't have much lifespan left. He was almost at the end of his life. Looking at the desolate garden overgrown with weeds, his eyes were filled with nostalgia and sadness.

Seeing this scene, Ye Fan couldn't help but sigh. This was a loyal family. Their ancestors had guarded this courtyard without any future or hope for generations.

The old man was a little stiff. He slowly turned his head. His face was full of wrinkles, and his eyes were turbid.

"Young man, are you here to buy stones?"

"What a sad old man. What is he waiting for by guarding here?" Ye Fan didn't know what kind of power or belief supported the old man.

"Buy, I want to buy a lot of stones!" Ye Fan nodded and placed a lot of stones in front of the old man.

"I don't need so much. There are no valuable stones here …" The old man was trembling. He pushed the stones back with his rough old hands and said, "Moreover, you haven't chosen a stone yet."

"I'll go choose now." Ye Fan said.

"Search carefully. Maybe you can find one or two treasures. Occasionally, there will be legendary figures who come here to search for treasures. " The old man's eyes were lifeless. He looked at the ruined garden with sadness and said, "There was another person who came in just now. He went to the depths to search. Maybe he is one of those people."

Li Heishui smiled and joked, "Maybe we are lucky and will really meet a legendary figure."

Suddenly, Ye Fan's expression turned sluggish. His heart was thumping because he really saw a terrifying figure!

In the depths of the wormwood grass, there was an old Daoist wearing an ancient Daoist robe. His body was withered and he was squatting on the ground looking at the stones. It was actually the Red Dragon Daoist.

Fortunately, Ye Fan's qi cultivation was good enough. If it was someone else, they would have cried out in alarm. He calmed his emotions in an instant and his pulse was not chaotic at all.

This was the Peacock King's sworn brother, a super terrifying existence that even the Great Sage Lords feared. Ye Fan had never thought he would meet him here.

He couldn't help but glance at the old man and Li Heishui. He didn't know whether they were jinxed or they had great prophecy skills. They really pointed out a super terrifying figure.

The Red Dragon Daoist glanced over and then at the old man and Li Heishui. He didn't say anything.

A few months ago, the Red Dragon Daoist chose a pile of stoneware in the stone stronghold. In the end, Ye Fan took it all away and even the foundation of the villagers' houses were uprooted. Not even a hair was left for him.

Ye Fan could imagine the Red Dragon Daoist's expression when he returned that day. He didn't dare to reveal a single flaw. If the Red Dragon Daoist knew he was the one who did it, he would most likely ruthlessly beat him up.

He and Li Heishui casually searched for stones under the ancient tree and didn't reveal any strange expressions.

Not long after, the Red Dragon Daoist chose a dozen or so broken stones that didn't seem special. He piled them up in front of the old man and was about to pay.

Suddenly, the Red Dragon Daoist seemed to have sensed something. He emitted a terrifying aura and disappeared from where he was. He rushed out as if he was chasing after something.

"Why did he leave …" The old man was puzzled. He then said to Ye Fan and Li Heishui, "Why don't you guys stop picking and buy these stones? They are all good ones."

Ye Fan was a little hesitant. Could it be that he had to plunder everything the Red Dragon Daoist wanted?

"Buy! If that Ox Nose doesn't come back, I'm very lucky. If he comes back, I'll do him a favor. "Ye Fan secretly made such a decision and walked over.

"Just cut it here." Li Heishui didn't care much. He didn't know the identity of the Red Dragon Daoist.

"Wait a little longer." Ye Fan was afraid that the Red Dragon Daoist would come back.

However, after waiting for a quarter of an hour, the other party still didn't return. He secretly thanked his luck and directly cut the stone.

After peeling off thirteen stones, there was nothing inside. It was empty.

The fifteenth stone was only the size of a fist. As soon as Ye Fan cut it open, he smelled a fragrance. It was like orchid musk, refreshing and intoxicating.

He was shocked. This smell was too familiar. Not long ago, he had cut it out from the stone tools left behind by the Yuan Taoist Master. It had poisoned the greedy big black dog to death.

"Why is the Red Dragon Daoist's eyes so sharp? Does he also know the most profound Genesis technique?!" While Ye Fan was shocked, he also had endless doubts.

Of course, at the moment, he had a headache. He had cut out something like this again. Was it going to be wasted again?

"I cut out a treasure!" Li Heishui shouted excitedly. Such a strong fragrance coming from the stone must be a rare treasure in the world.

Even the old man next to him, his turbid eyes were no longer dull, revealing a look of surprise.

Ye Fan peeled off the stone, revealing a pink fruit. It was only the size of half a fist. It was exactly the same as the last time, just that it was half the size.

"Shua!"

Suddenly, a light flashed, and the Red Dragon Daoist silently appeared in place, revealing a look of shock and anger. "Why did you touch my stone?"

Ye Fan didn't answer immediately. He wanted to sell the Red Dragon Daoist a favor. He absolutely couldn't let the other party blame him.

"You went and didn't return, so I took the initiative to sell it to them." At this moment, the old man next to him replied.

Daoist Red Dragon was a little surprised and could not help but look at the old man.

"We've already bought it. If you want it, bring enough Source Energy to buy it." Even though Li Heishui could tell that the Red Dragon Daoist was extremely powerful, he would never have thought that the other party was so terrifying that he could be the big brother of the Peacock King.

"Let's not talk about these useless things first. Hurry up and take out the jade artifact to seal it. Otherwise, the most conservative estimate is that something worth hundreds of thousands of kilograms of Origin Source will be ruined!" The Red Dragon Taoist was incomparably anxious. His head was drenched in sweat. He searched his entire body but could not find any jade artifact.

"Hundreds of thousands of kilograms?!" Li Heishui almost bit off his tongue.

Damn Black Emperor!

At this moment, Ye Fan had the urge to curse, and the corner of his mouth almost twitched. Damn, this greedy damn dog bit down on more than two hundred thousand kilograms of Origin Source in one bite!

In the end, it didn't even bother to do anything. It poisoned itself until it foamed at the mouth and twitched for half a month.
